Never in my life has there been as an anticipated rematch. The last time the Pens touched the Prince of Wales trophy? 1992, Mario Lemieux. The result? The Stanley Cup. In retrospect, we were foolish to think that last year's Penguins had what it took. We are better this year. We are much better this year. The fact that we took the long road to get here will help us in the long run. The Red Wings are busy looking at their own reflections in the mirror. Especially one #81. Datsyuk is hurt. Lidstrom is hurt. Chelios plays 30 seconds a game. That leaves the bulk of the defense on the heels of 4 players. You can't do that against this year's Crosby and Malkin. It's impossible. You could put out 4 Lidstrom's on the ice and it wouldn't stop these two for 60 minutes. They don't even have one Lidstrom.
Saturday. Game 1.
Oh, we shall see. We shall see.
ReplyDeleteI will agree that the Penguin team is a far better team than last year when they were so dazzled by playing the Red Wings. They won't be as dazzled this year. The Penguins have the momentum and may be more hungry than the Wings.
